Linus Torvalds 736b5545d3 Including fixes from bpf and netfilter.
Previous releases - regressions:
 
  - Revert "net: rtnetlink: Enslave device before bringing it up",
    breaks the case inverse to the one it was trying to fix
 
  - net: dsa: fix oob access in DSA's netdevice event handler
    dereference netdev_priv() before check its a DSA port
 
  - sched: track device in tcf_block_get/put_ext() only for clsact
    binder types
 
  - net: tls, fix WARNING in __sk_msg_free when record becomes full
    during splice and MORE hint set
 
  - sfp-bus: fix SFP mode detect from bitrate
 
  - drv: stmmac: prevent DSA tags from breaking COE
 
 Previous releases - always broken:
 
  - bpf: fix no forward progress in in bpf_iter_udp if output
    buffer is too small
 
  - bpf: reject variable offset alu on registers with a type
    of PTR_TO_FLOW_KEYS to prevent oob access
 
  - netfilter: tighten input validation
 
  - net: add more sanity check in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb()
 
  - rxrpc: fix use of Don't Fragment flag on RESPONSE packets,
    avoid infinite loop
 
  - amt: do not use the portion of skb->cb area which may get clobbered
 
  - mptcp: improve validation of the MPTCPOPT_MP_JOIN MCTCP option
 
 Misc:
 
  - spring cleanup of inactive maintainers

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
